I want to go to Nursing School in the Phillipines. How would I actually do this

I want to go to Nursing School in the Phillipines. How would I actually do this?
I just graduated high school 3 months ago and I want to become an RN. I am half filipino with many relatives who live in Manila. Does anyone know of any good nursing schools or programs in or near Manila? How do I find out what prerequisites I might need? Is there any programs that would help me with loans or scholarships?

Nursery schools in the philipines are really good. I've been there, i think it's weird and i don't help you at all here but hey, at least i tried. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AkHDtjBzDxNhxUiHQHTgh0_j1KIX;_ylv=3?qid=20100823184402AAF5CrX

My thinking on that is you would be better off going here in the U.S. Unless you want to work in the Philippines. My sister-in-law came from there then moved here hoping for that kind of job. Not easy in this country. You have to get re-training once you look for work here. There are differences.

Few of these programs would carry as much weight in the US as most US programs because secondary school in the Philippines ends at the equivalent of the tenth grade, so that a two-year program in the Philippines would end at the equivalent of the US twelfth grade and a four-year program would be roughly equivalent to a US community college program. I have no information on how well the programs prepare students to pass the NYCLEX exam to become an RN in the US or on how much of the instruction is in English. You would find little, if any, loan or scholarship assistance, especially as you you appear to be a US resident or citizen who would be an international student. However, living costs with your relatives would be very inexpensive as would be tuition in comparison to many US programs. If you are still interested, St. Luke's is the most respected hospital in Manila and you might want to take a look at its program.

What does it cost per year to train a student nurse in Manila

What does it cost per year to train a student nurse in Manila?
Are there enough professors left in the speciality to train the students? Are there enough students left to serve the needs of the Philippine people after the UK and others have recruited their experienced personel? Are the professors or trainers adequately rewarded for their expertese and labours?

It depends on what type of nursing. But they dont pay up front per class. they pay per test. I support a student in ozamiz and i pay about 600 dollars a year for her to go to school. And that does not include food or shelter
2 :
Probably around a thousand dollars on the average. Some may be more expensive but should also be near there. This does not include expenses, books, uniforms and other day to day expenses... There are still a lot of good teachers and they are not adequately paid or rewarded. That is the reason a lot of students are studying nursing so that they can move out of the country and earn more.
3 :
$600-1200 i'd say. But it really depends on what kind of school tey are attending. It doesn't include board and lodging of course. if you want to communicate with the school regarding fees then find the schools name and number. here's one of the schools that has affiliates in the US though.
